Description

  • Calcium Chloride, 15mM Sterile Solution
  • Calcium chloride behaves as a typical ionic halide, and is solid at room temperature.
  • It has several common applications such as brine for refrigeration plants, ice and dust control on roads, and in concrete.
  • The anhydrous salt is also widely used as a desiccant, where it will adsorb so much water that it will eventually dissolve in its own crystal lattice water.
  • It can be produced directly from limestone, but large amounts are also produced as a by-product of the Solvay process.
  • Because of its hygroscopic nature, the anhydrous form must be kept in tightly-sealed containers.
  • It is used to turn kelp into a solid.
  • A reagent used in preparation of competent E.coli
